I had the same issue several times and here's what I did and it solved the problem. Before you start disassembling the motor or the gears try this:

Once the steps open, thoroughly lubricate every joint and pivot points with Kwik lube spray grease. This product will spray like a liquid and turn to a grease lubricant.
Hope this helps.
Safe travels
